Its dreams and hopes
rising brick by brick
reaching the last possible edge
like the pyramids at Giza
and its intense conflicts with
norms,logic and self
fierce like gladiators
in the grand colosseum
fighting for life
the secret pleasures
delicate and intricate as the
complex lanes of
glorious Babylon or Jerusalem
and its passionate longing
similar to the desperation
for one last gulp of life
in Auschwitz
every word turning into poetry
and every carving a verse
like the singing marbles
of the legendary Taj
know this is
the monumental love
across centuries !
